New TV - Looking for Suggestions

[giacona]

I am in need of a new TV for the bedroom as my 42" Panny plasma died. I've done some preliminary homework and what I am seeing is a lot of TV's are coming with only 60 hz refresh rate. I am a big sports fan so I am concerned about the lag. I have a feeling the 60 hz refresh rate is just more affordable to make.

Costco seems to have a decent amount of TV's, but mostly in the larger sizes. I do like the Sony Bravia's but can't really fine any locally in the size I am looking for, budget and refresh rate. One thing I need to mention I am PWM sensitive so I want to try and find a TV that I won't have any issues with that. I want to be under 1K if possible as a price range and size "55 or less.

Thanks

55" and high quality under $1k should be extremely easy to do. I picked up a mini LED 4K for $600, 144Hz refresh and it looks great. Blacks are nearly as good as OLED, but you can get a small amount of local blooming as it is still LED. Lag I don't think is really as big of an issue these days, but you should shoot for something higher than 60Hz. PWM, I think you'll have to go to a store and see if a particular TV or brand has the issue. OLED might be better in that regard, but they still have it.
